Brings back memories of OCS training.

I still can't believe the compound is gone and is now a commercial center. http://www.oradour.info/images/badtolz2.htm

I was there summer of '08. Stayed in an apartment down by the Kurhaus. Over the years I had seen the transformation from closing, decay, Stadtamt moving in and then commercial center.

The "snail" on the inside of the quad is pretty strange looking. Must have gotten a 2 Euro a day designer for that one.

There is a pretty cool Gaststube on the end of the old NCO Academy named Gaststaette zur Flint Kaserne. It was nicer before but still okay. Enables one to have a Bier at the old digs...

Gone but not forgotten.

But what about all the Nazi gold in the cellars??

Never heard any mention of OCS being run at Toelz nor a compound there.

The skiing at Benning wasn't very good though.

I miss those times at Tolz, even if I didn't get my "complete" fair share like some, but nothing stays the same.

Gold? Mythology. Starnbergersee had the same myth. Probably some somewhere...

I knew there was a reason I never went to OCS...

The film links posted by Al were for the SS Junkerschule-Tolz (OCS) - the other Junkerschule was at Braunschweig - I was just making fun of the Benning School for Boys by comparing it to the propaganda film of Tolz.

And the skiing was better at Tolz!
